Under and Into

Standard

A chance encounter

On a

Sunny day.

Remains of a puddle on a crowded sidewalk.

I stepped to my left,

You stepped to your right

And there I was looking in your eyes.

It has been such a long time

But my heart does not recognize the clock.

Your hand brushed mine as we said hello.

And there I was

Thrown back in time.

Standing under that

Old

Oak tree so long ago.

As if we never let go.

My heart beating quickly

As I fell under

And

Into your love.

Under the tree.

The old oak tree

So long ago.

Last

Standard

Those hugs.

Those last hugs.

And that last glance.

You looked over your shoulder

One final time

As you stepped inside.

As you waved goodbye.

The last time I saw you,

You did not stand on the sidewalk as

Usual

And wave.

You did not stay and watch me drive

Away

Around the corner

Until I was completely out of sight.

No.

Those last hugs.

That last glance.

Little did we know

Those would be the

Last

Ones given.
